Curry also spoke with the media and said he is still targeting a March 1 return date, which would be a home game against the Wizards.

Curry has only played in four games this season. He broke his hand during a fall in late October and has undergone two surgeries since then.
The Warriors are 12-44, which is the worst record in the league. Even if he returns, they have a long way to go to improve their record this season, which also means their shot at earning a high pick in the draft likely would not be too ruined.
